WordPress (WP) wp_list_pages returns null

I recently had a problem with wordpress 3.6 and the function wp_list_pages within my template. I know my page had subpages, but when I executed the code the function returned NULL. After doing some digging I found that when wp_list_pages runs, it applys a ”exlcude”-filter, and somewhere on the way this filter added all my pages to it. I tried deactivating all plugins, search all code for the exclude filter funtion and tried another theme but it did not work.

So for now I just added comment marks infront of line 842 in fil ”wp-includes/post-template.php” which temporarly solved the problem.

I know this is the forbidden way so solve it =) so if someone has a better solution, please put it in the comment section.

WP qtranslate custom posts + categories and descriptions + plugin

Just created a plugin that has products and categories for wordpress that needed to be translated. Beacuse of the nice hooks in qtranslate I decided to use it. This is who I fixed it:

In my plugin file I added these lines:

add_filter(‘YOUR-TAXANOMY-NAME,’qtrans_convertURL’);
add_action(YOUR-TAXANOMY-NAME_add_form’, ‘qtrans_modifyTermFormFor’);
add_action(‘YOUR-TAXANOMY-NAME_edit_form’, ‘qtrans_modifyTermFormFor’);
add_filter(‘YOUR-TAXANOMY-NAME’, ‘qtrans_useTermLib’);

That worked great for allmost everything, but it did not solve the translation for the category description. To solve that I needed to wrap the output (in my custom template file) with the following function:

echo _e($term->description, ‘qtranslate’);

Oh, and if you want your break rows back, wrap the description with nl2br:

echo _e(nl2br($term->description), ‘qtranslate’);

 

Comment the post if you need help to get it working =)

 

Make WordPress plugin grid column responsive

Grid columns (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/grid-columns) is a great wordpress plugin for using columns. The problem is that it is not responsive. But that is easy to solve. Just add this to you responsive CSS:

@media (max-width: 700px) {
.column-grid .column, .column-grid .column-first, .column-grid .column-last { float: none; }
body .column-grid .column { width: 100%; }

}

”body” can be changed to example ”#container” if you´r using a container div with that id.

”max-width: 700px” can of course be changed to you own width.

WordPress, ”Sorry, you failed the nonce test” update user of multisite

If you get the message ”Sorry, you failed the nonce test” when updating a user of multisite, the problem is that you are trying to do it from the ”Network admin panel” users .

The solution is to go to the admin panel of the specific site that has that user and then go to users and change the password.

WordPress slow admin?

Is your wordpress admin slow? Do you run a multisite? On a server that uses NAT?

The problem is that the admin-panel tries to connect to it self, and if you use NAT the server can´t reach it self, so it has to time out each time you load a new page.

To solve this, just add you domain to the hosts file (/etc/hosts for linux and c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts for windows).

Example:
127.0.0.1 localhost http://www.yourdomain.com
127.0.0.1 localhost yourdomain.com

If you do not have access to your hosts file, just remove the admin panel. For mor information, visist http://codex.wordpress.org/User:Westi/Hosting_WordPress_Behind_NAT
